Obama looked like a bumbling, uninformed, phony moron. Now if the press wants to spin it another way, who cares? This event will be forgotten before the end of the weekend. However, some of Obama’s answers will be saved on tape forever.

The House GOP did a very good job grilling Obama. Quit being frightened by Obama.

1. They're not frightened anymore.

They're terrified.

[Bill219]

2. Holy Shit!

The guy that wrote that post over at FR is delusional

[liberalmuse]

3. I think they've gone from Cheetohs to Dust Off.

Yikes!

[dkf]

4. That's when we know things are going good.

Laughing at clueless freeps sure is entertaining.

[scheming daemons]

5. One freeper in that thread surprised with this well-thought out reaction:

To: coaltrain; Balding_Eagle
Balding eagle is absolutely right, politics is perception and we just lost that round. Obama did not look "bumbling", rather he looked like a lion tamer who walked into the cage before 140 Republicans and proved that he can master them without a Teleprompter. Obama looked fully in command. The Republicans did not do a good job of grilling him, they were pathetic. He walked into their trap but he sprung it on them.
To the contrary, we should be very afraid of Obama because he is one of the best mechanics and craftsman among politicians alive today. The only two good things that can be said of this performance: First, no self-respecting observer will ever again say that Obama cannot operate without a Teleprompter and we will cease deceiving ourselves, at least in this respect; second, you are quite right, the event will soon be forgotten because the people are not interested in this kind of give-and-take which has not been hyped; they are interested in jobs and their mortgages.

The proper lesson to take from this is not the tangle with Obama by going into a gunfight with a knife. If you want to grill someone you do not do it the way it was done today. You have one interlocutor who asks follow-up questions and cross examines the subject in a coherent and systematic style. It does no good in the perception game if your only achievement is to give some of your Republicans a chance to stand up and show the folks back home that they had an exchange with the president of the United States. You cannot succeed by asking unconnected questions. Cross examination must be planned affair with every alternative anticipated. Most of those Republicans in that room were lawyers but not a damn one of them acted like it.

Shame on them. An artful attorney could fillet Obama without appearing rude or disrespectful of the office of the president. Obama won this round hands down. If you want to win the next two elections, the first step is to end the self-deception which lost the last two.

At least one of 'em has half a brain to comprehend what went on there today.

[Art_from_Ark]

7. Holy cat-- the poster's name is "nathanbedford"?

As in Nathan Bedford Forrest, the founder of the Ku Klux Klan? :wow:'

[grantcart]

17. down thread he says that he is posting from Germany

[grantcart]

19. wrong location

[Art_from_Ark]

27. He doesn't sound like a non-native speaker, though

I've had all sorts of experience with English as it is spoken by non-native speakers from Europe, Asia, South America, etc., , and that guy's English is almost certainly native. So if that guy's in Germany, maybe he's stationed over there?

[WeDidIt]

30. He's probably in the military

Yeah, I know, but the racist fucks ARE in the military.

[MilesColtrane]

45. A skinhead in the military?

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

22. I'd assume that the founder of the KKK has more intelligence and sense...

...than your average freeper. I'm amazed that half of the people on that site can even feed themselves.

[madmax]

58. Now that makes perfect sense.

All that blathering bullshit is stupid racism talking.

[Brother Buzz]

8. Yes, but the General still drank the Kool-Aid®

I have been posting on these threads since well before the election the danger posed to our liberties by this Manchurian Marxist. I take second place to no Freeper in this regard. But I also will not take first place in the feel-good, self delusional cheerleading which cost us the last two elections and undermined the reputation of the Republican Party to the point where it fell from the majority governing party to an impotent rump.

13. It is nice to see at least one of them with a brain.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

23. Not really. I'd rather they were all stupid morons. n/t

[krispos42]

15. That post would be respectable on DU

RimJob had better give this guy a medal or something... it's probably his star.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

24. Freeperville bans smart people.

They really, REALLY don't like people rocking the boat. At all.

[K8-EEE]

16. Wow!!!

Yes that is awfully aware for a freeper. It is amazing to me they can bend ANYTHING to suit their ideology -- like they are painting the people who were after Landreau's office some kind of big heroes it's like, HUH???

[lib_wit_it]

29. Except for the BS belief that a "An artful attorney could fillet Obama..." This suggests that the

poster believes that Obama's points were wrong, but went unchallenged, doesn't it?

[livetohike]

32. It is B.S. I'll be that 95% of those in attendance yesterday

were attorneys before winning their Congressional seat. Some of them had to be "artful" based on statistics one would think. The truth is that they had no argument especially when Pres. Obama was talking about economics. He knows his stuff.

[lib_wit_it]

43. They do love to lie, though. And of course went right on to Fox and the MSM shills to spew the same

crap the president had just so clearly exposed. And of course the RWers will believe their guys over that Muslim!, Nazi!, Commie!. Socialist!, Arrogant!, lecturing Nobama.

Pea brains!

[pipi_k]

37. I think the use of the word "artful" suggests

that no matter what Obama said, this person feels that an "artful attorney" would be able to twist his words around against him.


I don't believe that, though. I think Obama is quite witty and mentally/verbally nimble enough to hold his own against the best "artful attorney" they could pit against him.

:)

[lib_wit_it]

40. Ah, exactly the way I should have known the Rs would mean it. Well, let Obama be the Artful

Dodger in deflecting their paid character and policy assassins.

[monmouth]

33. "nathanbedford" had to be one of our guys over there. Just sayin'....n/t

[Fumesucker]

38. "Most of those Republicans in that room were lawyers but not a damn one of them acted like it."

Ouch.. That one left a mark.

I won't go to FR but I'd sure like to know what kind of replies this guy got.

[Berry Cool]

52. So true!

Kinda makes you wonder whether a lot of these guys don't go into politics merely because they were never all that good at the lawyerin' thing.

[Fumesucker]

54. Yeah, I had that thought too ..

Politics, the refuge of the incompetent lawyer.

Keep in mind that for at least the last decade right winger politicians have been selected for their willingness to march in lockstep and not ask questions of their leaders.

Basically the Republican party been winnowing out the smart ones, sooner or later it's got to have an effect on the party as a whole.

[Berry Cool]

51. With the emphasis on "half."

This poster thinks everyone will forget or ignore this whole thing. Wrongo.

[treestar]

55. Like Obama isn't a lawyer too!

Moranic freeper! :rofl:

[truedelphi]

62. That was a very decent analysis. n/t

[tblue]

6. Yeah, freepers. Keep telling yourself that.

If Obama keeps this up, I will have to put my Obama sticker back on my.car.

[la la]

11. i never took it off-

i 'wear' it proudly! ;>)

[euphoria12leo]

42. Oh come on put the sticker back on n/t

:eyes:

[madrchsod]

9. i see redstate has nancy not running for the house...

redstate`s take on why nancy is "resigning" is truly bizarre

[Ardent15]

10. There's denial, and there's Freeperville today

K and R

[Ohio Joe]

12. freepers.... dumb as shit

Douchebags don't even know when they get their asses handed to them :rofl:

[Zoeisright]

14. The projection is just amazing. He described Bush to a tee.

Bumbling, uninformed, phony moron is Bush. And Repukes.

[trueblue2007]

18. Gop Coaltrain is a moron. People will NEVER forget how stupid the GOPS were in that event

It will be on CSPAN, CNN and MSNBC for years to come

[Berry Cool]

53. No kidding.

If it had been a sporting event, it would be reairing on ESPN Classic today.

[grantcart]

20. Normally don't go over there much but your link seduced me

here is another thread where they discuss Tea Party and GOP merging.


Most of the posters think that the GOP is too beneath them to let them into the Tea Party Movement.


GOP politicians must love this.


If somebody wants to start a seperate thread on it be my guest

[DiverDave]

46. God, the memories

BOC in Erlangin (sp?) when I was in the service.
The German folks just sat and tapped their feet.
All us army types went to the front and boogied down...
Then the Godzilla at Portland Oregon Coliseum, the drummer had a godzilla head on and TORE IT UP.

Ah, my missspent youth.

[malaise]

26. Oh My

Then why did FUX cut the Q&A? :rofl:

[SpiralHawk]

28. To hide the truth

as usual. Hiding the truth is a Wide Stance Diaper-clad republicon Family Value.

[sendero]

31. LOL.....

.... yeppers!

As for that single intelligent freeper post, he's got most of it right except the idea that with cross examination they'd do any better.

Obama had the FACTS and they had pathetic assertions they could not back up.

No amount of cross will counter that.

All that said, I was proud of Obama's performance, I just wish I could get excited about his actual job performance.

[sufrommich]

34. My favorite quote:

"Whoever set this up needs to be voted out this November."

lol.

36. Dogshit dumb. Grand ol perverts, theives, liars, creeps and phonies are beyond

ridiculous.

[TxVietVet]

47. The conservanazis are SCARED sh!tless.

They were DUMB enough to have it filmed. Great campaign material. They could not undermine the President. Some were probably shocked that now they actually see he's a BRILLIANT man.

I'll bet their racist assholes could have pinched pennies when this is all over.

F*ck the freepers. They are addicted to their lies. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

They mainline the conservanazi koolaid. :banghead:

Thanks.

Write your Congressperson and demand they do this again - every week, if necessary. GOP victory is on the horizon.

[madmax]

59. Love it

:rofl:

[1awake]

50. At a loss for words...

Decided to check out the link and saw this quoted.. no idea who said it or what it's from.. but it simply left me speechless...


"I always freeze a bit when I hear Obama say he is willing to be “a one-term” president because I believe he intends to be president-for-life. As I wrote recently, I believe he is bringing down the U.S. economy on purpose as his “fire in the Reichstag” so he has an excuse for his “Enabling Act” to suspend the Constitution and take total power."


wtf...

[Yurovsky]

56. K&R, these guys are hilarious!*

nt

[madmax]

57. Good grief how dense are these people?

Or are they just so blinded by hatred and racism that they are incapable of hearing and believing the reality that smacks them right in face.

There must be a cinical diagnosis in the DSM for that.
